The Next Generation of Community Leaders
GenNext brings together dedicated professionals in their 20s and 30s who are committed to shaping the future of our community. As an affinity group of United Way Central Alberta, GenNext empowers each of its volunteer members to develop a deeper understanding of local issues while igniting a passion for leadership and philanthropy to drive meaningful change.
GenNext in Action
Harnessing the skills, passions, and networks of our members, GenNext fosters local leadership and inspires collective action around community needs. We mobilize the energy of our generation by engaging young adults in evolving community issues, creating valuable learning experiences, holding insightful discussions, and implementing hands-on initiatives and activities that drive positive change toward a brighter future.
